PEN/PENCIL FOR SCARCH WORK

Hi,
I have doubt , is pen allowed to use for scratch work ?
or we have to use pencil itself for that too ?

Hey Robin,

Just the pencil and the booklet. That's all. But there is no "that too." The only thing you ever write down is on pencil in the book. There's no bubble sheet or separate essay section (the essays are typed into the computer).

From the ETS website: "(Bring) Three or four sharpened No. 2 or HB pencils and a good eraser — Pencils and erasers will not be supplied at the test center. Mechanical pencils and pens are not permitted."
